Beijing Layover Night Tour with Guide & Street Food

Meet your guide and driver at the airport or your hotel in Beijing, then begin your evening sightseeing in a private vehicle.

Drive through central Beijing to see the Tiananmen area beautifully illuminated at night. Your guide will introduce the significance of the city center and point out important landmarks along the way. (If you prefer to enter Tiananmen Square, a reservation must be made in advance, so your full name, passport number, age and gender are required at least one day before departure. Please also note that entry may involve a long wait in line, especially during peak season, when the waiting time can be as long as hours.)

Take a relaxed walk along Qianmen Street, one of Beijing’s best-known historic commercial streets. Enjoy the old Beijing atmosphere, browse local shops, and stop to try snacks if you wish. Two local Beijing snacks are included. You're free to try more local snacks based on your own preferences.

Exterior Visit The Bird’s Nest and the Water Cube are two of Beijing’s most iconic modern landmarks, originally built for the 2008 Olympic Games. Today, they remain popular photo stops and symbols of modern Beijing. If you wish, an interior visit can also be arranged at an additional cost. Please note that opening hours may vary, and interior visits may not be available during concerts, sporting events, or special activities. The Bird’s Nest generally operates extended visitor hours on some schedules, while the Water Cube’s visiting hours vary by season, so entry is always subject to the venue’s actual operating schedule on the day.

After the tour, your driver will take you back to the airport or your hotel.
